Patients with acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) or AIDS-related complex (ARC) are developing beliefs, behaviors, and a knowledge bases that may affect their health status, sense of well-being, and health care needs. However, little documentation of these changes exists. Consequently, the purpose of this study was to describe AIDS beliefs, behaviors, and informational needs of homosexual/bisexual human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) seropositive patients 7 years into the epidemic. Data were collected once from 178 patients using a modified version of the AIDS Beliefs and Behaviors Questionnaire (ABBQ). Study results showed that in 1987, most outpatients (73%) in an AIDS epicenter wanted more information about building their immune systems. Few patients (12%) wanted more explicit information about safe sexual behaviors, although 3 years into the epidemic this information was a central concern. Results suggest that health professionals need to take an active role in monitoring and addressing patients' changing informational needs.
获得性免疫缺陷综合征（艾滋病）或艾滋病相关综合征（ARC）患者正在形成一些观念、行为和知识基础，这些可能会影响他们的健康状况、幸福感和医疗保健需求。然而，关于这些变化的记录很少。因此，本研究的目的是描述在艾滋病流行7年后，同性恋/双性恋人类免疫缺陷病毒（HIV）血清阳性患者的艾滋病观念、行为和信息需求。使用修改后的艾滋病观念与行为问卷（ABBQ）对178名患者进行了一次数据收集。研究结果显示，1987年，在一个艾滋病高发地区，大多数门诊患者（73%）希望获得更多关于增强免疫系统的信息。很少有患者（12%）希望获得更多关于安全性行为的明确信息，尽管在疫情爆发3年后，这一信息曾是核心关注点。结果表明，卫生专业人员需要积极参与监测和满足患者不断变化的信息需求。
